Well, Sky Sports say that Fulham are favourites for Dembele, TalkSport say that he wants to sign for us.

only remember caciedo coming on at upton park the season before last and made a big impact......... was a real handful for upson.

also saw him play at west brom and looked a real handful again. my problem is that we is very similar to what we already have.

Dembele wants West Ham move after Blues snub

Moussa Dembele wants to join West Ham after rejecting a move to Birmingham, talkSPORT understands.

Blues boss Alex McLeish was believed to be winning the race to land the 23-year-old AZ Alkmaar striker after having a £5million bid accepted.

But the Belgium international has told McLeish he is not interested in a move St Andrews - and talkSPORT has learnt that's because he's keen to push through a switch to Upton Park.

ha ha maybe............. but upson was in much better form during zolas first season in charge.

Yup, still on there...we are getting ****ed for midfielders then. Kovac going, Hitzlsperger injured, Behrami wanting to go, Collison injured...we are gonna need to sign another two, yet everyone says we are so strong in midfield...especially with a 4-5-1!

We can still hold out slight hope as it isnt on the OS yet I suppose.

Sullivan has him cornered NSD.

Upson, now ex-England, will be nearly 33 next summer.

Who's coming in for him that will be any better than us at that point?

The best he could hope for at a bigger club would be to be an occasional player - not a starter.

Is that wise for a player approaching the twilight?

:thup: Agreed
Basically, Upson's transfer value has completely been shot after World Cup. Will not play for England again IMO . Shame in all fairness as I would have loved him to have had a good World Cup to enhance his value and then get shot of the useless c*nt and let Scotty be captain

Despite his stock plummeting, Upson is still good enough to play for bigger clubs like Everton, Villa and Spurs. I don't think Tomkins is ready yet, Gabbidon still trying to get up to speed, Reid is untested, so Da Costa and Upson are still the best pairing imho.

Stoke's £8m deal with Sunderland for Kenwynne Jones is according to Pulis £2m per year over 4 years and Jones took a paycut so as not to break their strict wage structure

Can't think why Cole was not tempted??!!!

presume there is some back up plan on miralem and hoping it's not aliadiere (don't think it's caicedo as they're different type of players)...we need fast, left footed type player to play left mid/wing. Caicedo is a battering ram striker whereas aliadiere is just ****.

Think we missed a trick not trying to get de guzman when he went to mallorca. wonder if Barrera can have a chat with guardado...

kovac going may mean we lack height but at least we might play midfielders who track runners!
